Simon on the Streets

We provide emotional and practical support to people with complex needs who cannot or will not access other services. Within that group we focus on people who are homeless and rootless, especially those with issues related to rough sleeping.

We seek to work with other agencies to ensure that our service users are never left unsupported. We aim to provide continuous support to prevent relapse into problematic behaviour and to enable individuals to move to a stage where they no longer need formal support services.

We provide volunteers with the opportunity to develop new skills, and to be part of an organisation where the values of understanding, respect, commitment and trust are paramount.

We seek to enable people to respond to our service users in a compassionate, caring and empathetic way, to raise awareness of their plight and to articulate the voice of the marginalised.
